Baha cited several examples that he described as problematic currents. Sören Pellmann, the faction leader in the Bundestag, joined the Red Aid in September, which the Office for the Protection of the Constitution categorizes as the largest and one of the most important groups of German left-wing extremism. Ferat Koçak reportedly wrote to Firas Remmo, the son of a clan chief, in February and asked him to spread his speech on the clan debate. After Koçak was said to have been caught in a lie, he had to resign his seat on the Interior Committee. Baha stated that he did not further mention a campaign party with Ibrahim Ibrahim. He also wrote that Vanessa Emde denies the right of Israel to exist. The Left Party Neukölln celebrated a festival with a committee, which according to the Office for the Protection of the Constitution is backed by supporters of Hamas and the PFLP. The party stated that it does not share the assessment of the Office for the Protection of the Constitution. The Left Youth NRW, which claims to be the largest state association of the youth party, is being monitored by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution. According to their assessment, its goal amounts to a dictatorship of the proletariat; it is co-financed by the party, Baha wrote. #Linksextremismus #Politik #Deutschland (translated)

Only the cook accused CDU/CSU politician Sepp Müller of constructing a Hitler comparison from Vanessa Emde's statement that people have a right to exist, while invoking German state interests and the slogan "Never again is now." Koch described Emde's statement as legally correct and wrote that Müller had instrumentalized German history with his reaction to publicly defame the politician. This had occurred through the official channel of a taxpayer-funded Bundestag faction. Koch criticized the reaction as a mockery of international law, history, and the intelligence of the population. #Menschenrechte #Völkerrecht #Politik (translated)

U.M. OSINT referred to the debate, which had been intensively conducted again for the past two days, as leftist agitation and a seemingly legal discussion in which terms were being diluted. According to his representation, international law prohibits attacks on or the destruction of sovereign states, thereby protecting their right to exist. This is ensured internationally solely through the UN. Since Israel is a UN member, it has a right to exist; defined borders are not necessary for this. Israel's borders are largely defined by bilateral treaties, but not with the Palestinian territories, as these are not a state. Whether states emphasized or rejected Israel's right to exist is a political position, U.M. OSINT wrote. However, internationally, Israel's UN membership holds. He compared the debate to disputes over the terms "genocide," "intifada," and "anti-Semitism," accusing those who distorted terms of being unable to openly present their arguments. They may not want to explicitly say that they want to destroy Israel, he wrote in a harsh personal attack on the left. In conclusion, he described the actions as propaganda. #Völkerrecht #Israel #Politik (translated)

Emde says that there is no right to exist for states, only for people. And she names exactly one single state in a world full of dictatorships, wars, persecution, and conflicts, whose existence she wants to dissolve and replace with another. Anyone who does not recognize this madness cannot be helped. (translated)

Vanessa Emde, a controversial member of the Left party, sees her inclusion in the Left faction as a territorial gain against the state's raison d'être and reaffirms her controversial views on the right to exist of states and people in a new video. #Linke #Antisemitismus #Sondierungen (translated)

Igor Levit wrote that Vanessa Emde had signed that Israel has a right to exist and had been admitted to the left-wing faction. Two days later, she celebrated a "small gain against the state's reason" on Instagram. Levit said she was mocking the Greens and the SPD as well as their statements. The fact that these parties wanted to govern Berlin with such people until Sunday left him incredulous as a citizen – even more so as a Jew. At the same time, he wondered what motivated her. #Israel #Politik #Bürgerrecht (translated)

Markus Bublitz wrote that Vanessa Emde referred to her admission to the faction Die Linke on Instagram as a small territorial gain against the state’s reason of state. She reiterated that states have no right to exist and deemed a one-state solution legitimate. Furthermore, she portrayed the obligation to acknowledge Israel's right to exist as a coalition gift to the electoral losers. Bublitz also referred to a general strike announced by Emde on October 30. He doubted that the emerging coalition would be reliable and stable, and asked the Greens in Berlin what government they intended to form with such individuals and what they wanted to achieve for Berlin with it. #Politik #Berlin #Koalition (translated)

The author compared the RGR exploratory paper with a paper from the Left. He wrote that the exploratory paper had described Israel's right to exist as "non-negotiable," while supporters of Hamas within the Left had removed this statement. From this, he concluded that Israel could, in his view, be erased from the map. He then mentioned the SPD and the Greens but did not elaborate further on the thought. #Politik #Nahost #Israel #IL #DE (translated)

The comment criticizes the questionable collaboration between the SPD and the Greens with the Left Party, particularly due to the extremist views of representatives like Vanessa Emde, who call into question Israel's right to exist and render negotiations between the parties worthless. #Linkspartei #Antisemitismus #BerlinerPolitik (translated)

Tim Freiheit wrote that if states do not have a right to exist according to a position attributed to him by The Left, then this must also apply to Ukraine, Taiwan, Iran, Poland, Germany, and all other states.

Ines Schwerdtner, the national chairwoman of the Left Party, regrets the interruption of the exploratory talks with the SPD and the Greens and emphasizes that the agreement on Israel's right to exist has not been jeopardized. #Sondierungsgespräche #Linke #Bundespolitik (translated)

The author wrote that the Left party in the House of Representatives had discussed whether a woman could be a member who denies Israel's right to exist. This did not disturb the Berlin voters, he wrote; Vanessa Emde had campaigned on that and directly won her constituency in Neukölln. #Linke #Israel #Wahlen #DE #IL (translated)

The Left is currently discussing internally how far it can accommodate the Greens and the SPD, particularly regarding the inclusion of the controversial Neukölln representative Vanessa Emde, whose statements on Israel's right to exist contradict the party's position. #DieLinke #Antisemitismus #Berlin (translated)
